In the 1960s there were strong ties forged between the former Soviet Union and many countries in Africa. Those ties didn't endure - but now Russia seems to be rekindling old friendships on the continent. In the final episode of this series of What's Up Africa, satirist Ikenna Azuike says he thinks he knows why.

What's Up Africa is a video blog created and presented by Ikenna Azuike, filmed and edited by Sandesh Bhugaloo and written by Ikenna Azuike, Mollie Balogun and Okechukwu Ofili.

Producer: Kathy Harcombe

Consultant Script Editor: Turan Ali and Co-Director Emmanuel Tenenbaum.
